Telling the difference!

[Timbob]

I want a brand new 182 cup.

Is there a way to tell the difference between a 182 with cup extras and a genuine 182 cup.

Are dealers likely to give me/anyone a 182 with cup extras as a fob off? This doesnt make sense as a 182 non cup is a more expensive car. Either way i would not want a 182 with cup extras.





Continuing a Cost thread i was reading £11,182 is the cheapest i could find from the Lloyds Bank car search. However ive just spoke to a mate and he said he could get me an import for £9,500!

lol a 182 with cheap extras is more expensive than a 182 cheap!

Plus CC not aircon

No headlamp washers on a proper Cup I think.

 

[Pete]

Leather.

Dealers usually try to fob you off with something worse, not better!

I am probably one of only a few 182 Cup fans on this site but even I wouldnt turn my nose up at a fully cupped normal 182 if I was paying Cup money!

Any thoughts on imports, good or bad idea?



so a cup has air con not cc

cup doesnt have headlamp washers

cup doesnt have leather.

get a 182 WITH cup handling and suspension extras theyre an upgrade not a downgrade. The 182 comes with Xenons, auto wipers auto lights, half leather/alcantara, and full climate aircon over the cheaper 182 cup. oh and you wont have headlamp wash or the silver inset + rubber grips on the steering wheel of the cup whereas you will on the 182

Lighter = better.



a 182 with cup pack, would that weigh the same as a 182 cup?

In reality all the full "cup" versions of the 172/182 were and are cheap alternatives.

 

[silvercup182]

Ahhh 182 cup no!!!!! 182 + cup packs yes!!

Some peoples priorities are more important than others, no matter how minimal

Xenons Jill, you know how mad Si gets when people spell it incorrectly.

 

[Turkish]

youd think some people could spell considering their line of work

If it is an import you might only get a 1 year warranty or have to pay to upgrade to a full 3yr 60000mile warranty. So in the end you will wnd up paying abou the same as the UK car.
